Dating and Verification

The Continental logo design, featuring a specific style of horse figure, dates this piece between 1979 and 2013. The visible patina suggests it was likely produced in the early 2000s. This gauge was probably made by a subcontractor as part of a promotional campaign for Continental, adding a unique layer to its history.
